Back at it again, random blog for random things probably no one but future me will see, but oh well! i've started this blog to track my progress in finally obtaining my license xD
As of a few days ago, I finally got the courage to start and we went to sign up for the theory and lessons ^w^ in my country you need to pass the theory before doing any driving lessons, so that's what i've been up to for the past few days. TBH have not been assed to study for the past 2 days at all but even then it's MUCH more enjoyable than anything related to highschool or uni hahaha. Around 1-2 years ago i did have a few test drives in my mums car (meme ref not intended) but it was on some fuckass sandy road and i never went past second gear (manual car) and my starts were kinda janky QwQ this time like 2 days ago (or yesterday since it's like not much past midnight...) i just sat in it and went over all the controls again and can even steer like a pro so i'm much more confident preparing for driving lessons than i was for the past year. I wasn't able to even do them bc i was in college and i also had health issues and while they are still there and suck rlly bad i'm at home with family so i don't have much chores on my mind and can put my energy into this. i'm restarting college soon too but a diff major tho that's not super important tbh

This thing has become like. a hyperfixation atp. i keep watching videos on cars and driving tests and car decorating (i must bling my future car out) i cannot stop thinking about it it's literally consuming my mind if i don't watch at least 5 car videos an hour i will explode i think LIKE NOT IN A CAR BRO WAY BUT AAAJSHDFHKDFSJ I'M EXCITED OKAY
knowing as i live in a fuckass village and small town getting anywhere without a car is a hassle so being able to be so independent finally is a blessing i'm very excited. here's to hoping that i pass my theory as soon as possible and do well on driving lessons and get my damn license soon :3

it's currently nearly 2am as i am writing this, i often forget i even have this account xDD 

My studying for my theory is going well, although it's hard to stay motivated, but the actual information stays in my head and i always take notes just in case. I'm lucky to have driven a lot with my family, as most of them are amazing drivers and because of that i already know a good chunk of road rules, especially the basics.
Also went on my first proper test drive on sunday!! well, it was only on this little dirt road near my house where i had previously practiced as i mentioned last time but this time it was proper and not just like, breaking down in the car HAHAH
I improved my starts tremendously ^_^ As well as controlling the clutch, my mum taught me a trick with the biting point and because of that once i got the hang of feeling that biting point i didn't stall at all (apparently the car can't rlly stall past 1st gear unless in some rare situations, idk how that works). Also wasn't tensed up in the car at all, my mum posted a video of me driving on facebook and her friends there literally thought i had my license because of how chill i was driving XDD so safe to say it's way less stressful than last time, though by the end i did cry for some reason. genuinely no idea why tho.
My biggest issue was the holes and ditches which i needed to watch out for but it srsly was not bad at all lol. Still need to perfect my pedal controls and get a hang of shifting gears past gear 2, since i wasn't able to go any faster than gear 2 on that dirt road. Maybe if we will be able to we can go to some unused parking lot and i could train there even better haha but for now i just gotta focus on my theory and then start lessons Q-Q anyways goodnight i need to fix my sleeping schedule esp since i'm getting my eyebrow pierced on thursdayyyyy hehehehhe

Also unrelated but RIP Ozzy Osbourne </3 didn't listen much to black sabbath or him but still gutted cause he literally kickstarted the metal genre, absolute legend

As of today i have finished my driving theory lessons~ my instructor coincidentally also called me to ask about them LOL and we set the exam to be taken next week so AEOHDSHFJK WISH ME LUCK I'M SCARED BUT EXCITED.... i just did a mock test and passed with only one mistake so i am feeling confident :3 But yeah once i do that i'll be able to start lessons basically asap

as for the actual practice in a car, haven't been able to do so in weeks because each sunday has been busy in our schedule. also last week my mum's car broke down literally as soon as we came back from vacation, and it involved the wheel mechanisms so it was a very serious fault. like, could have died if it happened on the highway kind of fault. literally dodged death LOL but yeah that got fixed and now bc of that my mum has the insentive to buy a second car even before i get my license just in case this happens again. Mum drives a decade old mazda 3 which apart from this issue has been spotless so we trust it but ya never know when something can happen!!! holding off on the car stuff for now tho bc we are tight on money due to repair costs and other stuff :p later this week we will go to the driving school to book the exam and maybe on sunday i will get some driving in (:

also mentioned my eyebrow piercing in my last entry, i got both of them pierced and so far they are doing very well!!! didn't swell at all but i still waited the 3 weeks just in case, will probably go get them downsized soon :,D i'm kinda broke so this will be the last piercing for a while but whatever i will be stabbing my face with needles soon enough. hopefully a conch for my bday but idk.

back to license and car stuff i also got myself a cherry scented air freshner for my future ride. she's PINK and is PALM TREES it gives those 2000s pink beach vibes or whatever the kids call it these days, i love 2000s stuff so i love it. cost less than a dollar US (around 3 polish złoty) so it didn't break the bank at all.

hopefully nothing dramatic will happen, hopefully will pass my theory first try bc omg if i don't i'll be so pissed AHAHHAHA

6.09.25

I am back after another 2 week break or whatever lol. I PASSED MY THEORY FIRST TRY!! thank god, it was kinda terrifying but thankfully i was able to calm down enough to think with a clear head and most of the questions i had were rlly easy. as of now i am currently saving for a car, i have around 3k already saved (PLN) and to get a decent used car i need like 10k so it'll take a bit but thats ok! my first driving lessons is on the 9th of september which terrifies me but the instructor is very sweet so hopefully it'll all go well QwQ hoping that by the end of the year i would've passed my practical and gotten my license guh. My birthday is in 2 weeks (September 22nd) and SILENT SALT UPDATE THE DAY AFTER AHAESDDAJKFKASHFSHHAS this month is gonna be awesome i hope

BIG NEWS FOR THE UNEMPLOYED I GOT A CAR!!!!!!! i have yet to obtain my license however... yea we decided to splurge on a car already, my aunt and uncle were happening to sell one in very very good condition for an amazing price + it's my birthday soon so we snagged it!! SHE'S A RENAULT CLIO MK4 AND UGHHH I LOVE HER SHE'S MY BABY MUA MUA MUA ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ i also added an air freshener to her which i bought like last month and now my car smells like cherries. my cousin who was driving the car previously before me (her grandparents/my aunt and uncle owned the car but she drove it ykwim) happened to also leave this magnetic phone holder thing in it so i don't even need to buy one. i will probably buy some kind of floor mats for it because the current ones are made of material (?) and not rubber like the ones i prefer, so i'll try and look for some in the future. maybe also some stickers and other decorations :P but for now i'm broke asf cuz literally most of my savings went to this and i'll need to be repaying my mum for the part she put in lolol but is okay

As for the liscense itself, it's also going well!!! on my first lesson my instructor already took me out to town and for my first ever time driving it went so so well. like literally i arrived at the driving place thingy i drove 3 laps and she was like yeah ok we r going out on the town LOL i was shitting myself internally but it was very fun and once i got over that initial stiffness/fear it went awesome. on my second lesson i was driving around the big city even and it went sm better than i thought it would, though on my way back once i arrived in my hometown i stalled twice because of a stupid traffic jam. but all is good, it was my second ever time driving so for that i commend myself. hopefully by the end of the year or the beginning of next year i will have my license and be able to drive my new ride around everywhere and not just on the dirt road XD

ALSO SILENT SALT UPDATE ON THE 24TH AND MY BIRTHDAY ON THE 22ND AYAYYAYAYYAYAYYA I'M SO EXCITED FOR THE UPDATE THO IT LOOKS SO GOOD...... WHITE LILY PLZ DON'T DIE
